Lesson 1
1.Excuse me.Can you tell me the way to the sleeping Beauty Castle?
劳驾，能告诉我去睡美人城堡的路吗？
向别人打听去某地怎么走时，先说Excuse me，以表示礼貌，然后再问路。通常的问路方式有以下几种：
1)Can you tell me the way to the zoo?
2)Please show me the way to zoo.
3)Can you tell me which is the way to the zoo?
4)Excuse me,where is the zoo?
5)Can you tell me how to get to the zoo?
6)Would you please direct me to the zoo?
2.Go through the gate and you'll find the entrance to Bear Country on the other side.
穿过大门进去，你就会在另一边找到熊国的入口了。
1）在祈使句＋and＋含有一般将来时的这一句型中，祈使句表示的是一种条件或假设，陈述句表示的是一个结果。祈使句在作用上相当于if从句，大多数表示建议或提出要求。所以，这个句型一般可转换 为if条件（假 设）状语从句＋主句。
例：①Think carefully and you will find the answer.
＝If you think carefully，you will find the answer.仔细考虑一下，你就会找到答案。
②Turn off the main road here and you will come to the castle.＝If you turn off the road，you will come to the castle.在这儿拐入小路，你就会到达城堡。
2）这种句型还可以用连词or，或otherwise连接，相当于if not，意思是“否则的话”，
从反面来预测一个结果。
例：③Hurry up，or/otherwise you will be late.
＝If you don’t hurry up，you‘ll be late.快点，否则你要迟到了。
④Take a taxi,or/otherwise you'll miss the train.
＝if you don't take a taxi，you’ll miss the train.坐出租车，否则，你就会赶不上火车。
Lesson 2
1.He took along some of his pictures in the hope of getting a job there.
他随身带去自己的几幅画，希望能在那儿找到工作。
1）take along意为“带领，携带”，有“一道带来”，“随身携带”的意思。
例如：She took her little sister along to the concert.她带了她妹妹一同去音乐会。
例如：①I went there in the hope of meeting some of my old friends.我到那儿去，希望能见到一 些老朋友。
②My father went to France in the hope that his health would improve.我父亲去法国以期 望他的健康能有所改善。
in the hope of/that有时也可以说成in hopes of/that.意为“希望有某种情况。
例如：①Mother was in hopes that the cake would be good to eat.母亲希望那块蛋糕很好吃。
②He did it in hope of a reward.他做了这件事，希望受到奖励。
2.We don't think there's anything of interest in your pictures.我们认为你的画并没有什么有趣的地方。
此句尽管形式上否定了主句的谓语动词，但在意思上却否定了后面的宾语从句。后面的宾语从句如具有否定意思，则习惯上要否定主句中的谓语动词，而不否定宾语从句中的谓语动词。例如，本句不能说成We think there isn't anything of interest in your pictures.类似的动词还有believe，suppose等等。
①I don't think she is at home at this time of day.我想她白天的这个时候不会在家。
（不说：I think she is not at home at this time of day.）
②I don't believe it will rain tomorrow.我认为明天不会下雨。
（不说：I believe it will not rain tomorrow.）
3.Disney did not lose heart.迪斯尼并没有灰心。
“lose heart”意为“灰心，丧失信心”。
例如：①He failed in the exam，but he didn't lose heart.虽然他考试没及格，但他并不灰心。
②Don't lose heart.You’ll be successful sooner or later.别灰心，你迟早会成功的。
类似的短语还有：Lose one's head失去理智；惊慌失措。lose one’s breath上气不接下气，喘不过气来。
例如：①When the fire broke out in the movies，the people lost their heads and ran in all directions.
②He lost his breath in running.他跑得上气不接下气。
4.Day after day the mouse came back and was given more bread.老鼠一连几天都回来，而迪斯尼也天天给它吃面包。
day after day意为“一天又一天地，日复一日”，强调动作或情况的连续性。类似的词组还有，week after week每周地；month after month一月一月地；year after year年复一年地；generation after generation一代一代地。
例如：①I have to do this work day after day.我不得不天天做这项工作。
②Some folk songs are passed on generation after generation.不些民歌是一代一代地传下来的。(www.xing528.com)

例如：①We are very pleased with our new house.我们很喜欢我们的新房子。
②I'm very pleased with he has done.我对他所做的事情感到很满意。
⒍But the studios which he started are still busy today,producing more and more interesting films.
但是他所创办的制片厂直到今天仍然很繁忙，否定睚在制作越来越多的有趣的影片。
1）句中的which he started是定语从句，修饰先行词studios。
2）producing more and more interesting films是-ing短语作伴随状语，对上文所说的are still busy的情况作补充说明。
例如：①The children went into the forest，talking and laughing all the way.孩子们往森林走去，一路上又说又笑。
②The boy lay on the grass，looking at the stars.这个男孩躺在草地上，望着天上的星星。
Lesson 3
1.The parks are the cleanest parks that you can imagine.这些公园都是你可以想象得出的最干净的公园。
1）That you can imagine是定语从句，修饰先行词parks。由于parks被形容词最高级所修饰，定语从句中的关系代词用that，而不用which。如果关系代词代替先行词作从句的宾语，则常常可以省略。例如：
①This is the best film（that）I have ever seen.这是我所乍过的最好的一部电影。
②He is the tallest person（that）I ever know.他是我所认识的个子最高的人。
2）imagine意为“想象”、“设想”、“推测”，后接名词，动词-ing形式及从句作宾语，不能接不定式。
例如：①I can imagine the situation there.我可以想象那儿的情况。
②Can you imagine him becoming a doctor？你能想象他成为一名医生了吗？
③We could not imagine what would happen next.我们想象不出下一步会发生什么情况。
2.You can see as far as the coast.你可以一直看到海岸。
as far as意为“远到”“一直到”，例如：
①He walked as far as the village where I lived.他一直走到我住的那个村庄。
②We rode as far as the foot of the mountain.我们骑车一直骑到山脚下。
as far as＝so far as意为“就……而论”，“据……”。例如：
①As/so fat as I can see，it’s likely to be cloudy tomorrow.据我看，明天像是阴天。
②As/so far as I know，she is still wording as a teacher.据我所知，她仍在教书。
Lesson 4
Grammar：Revision of the Object clause语法：复习宾语从句。
宾语从句，实际上是直接引语改为间接引语的内容的一部分。因此间接引语的注意事项也就是宾语从句的注意事项。
宾语从句可要注意以下几点：
1.宾语从句要用陈述语序。
May I ask you where you were born？但当疑问词本身是主语或主语的修饰语时，语序不变。
He asked me who ran fastest in my class.
He doesn‘t know which method they will use for the experiment.
2.要注意保持主从句时态一致。如果主句中谓语动词的时态是现在时或将来时，从句可以使用任何时态。如果主句中谓语动词的时态是一般过去时，从句须使用过去时态。
①I think he’ll be back in a few days.
②Do you understand what the teacher said?
③He asked me whose English book it was.
但是当引述内容为客观真理时，时态不变；当引述内容中有明确年份时，时态不变。
He said he was born in 1975.
The teacher told us that the light travels faster than sound.
3.要注意从句人称的变化。
He said,“I was born in 1981,He said that he was born in 1981.
4.由that引导陈述句，if/whether引导一般疑问句，而用-wh，或how引导特殊疑句。
He said to me,“Are you a teacher?”
He asked me if I was a teacher.
He said that he would leave for Shanghai the next week.
Do you know who(whom)she is waiting for?
